An Lin composed himself before turning his attention to his system.
A few new missions had actually already appeared on his system when he broke through to the Return to Void Stage. However, all of them were insanely difficult.
The only one in which he had made any progress was his cultivation base mission.
He had actually already taken massive strides toward advancing to the Return to Void Intermediate Stage.
[Return to Void Intermediate Stage: Beat nine Dao Integration Stage living beings into submission. Current progress: 3/9.]
An Lin was actually in complete despair when he first saw this mission.
He had only just progressed to the Return to Void Stage, and the system was already telling him to beat nine Dao Integration Stage super mighty figures into submission? Just how high of an opinion did this system have of him?!
An Lin immediately banished the system in a fit of rage.
However, only a short time had passed before he really beat a Dao Integration Stage super mighty figure into submission. In fact, he had beaten three of them into submission.
This was the list: Immortal King Feng Wuya, Emperor Yi Deng, and Emperor An Mang.
Strictly speaking, Emperor An Mang had been subdued by his blood and not beaten into submission.
An Lin felt like this was a pretty good method to use. He was planning to make another trip to the Blood Tribe soon and letting the two other Blood Tribe emperors taste his blood as well.
There was also a condition for the Great Divine Might Technique to progress to the Super Divine Might Technique…
[Super Divine Might Technique mission condition: Beat a God of Creation Stage living being into submission.]
What the f*ck!? Were God of Creation Stage living beings a joke to the system?
Nuwa could easily beat him into submission, but how was he supposed to beat a living being of Nuwa’s caliber into submission?
This was a bullsh*t mission!
An Lin almost thought about pulling Tina aside and beat her up, but he couldn’t bring himself to do it.
Little Na was so adorable, how could he bear to beat her up?
“Little Na.” An Lin looked at the little fairy sitting on his shoulder with a distraught expression.
“Hmm? What is it, Giant An Lin?”
Tina opened her bleary eyes and pulled on An Lin’s earlobe with a confused expression.
“Are you at the God of Creation Stage?” An Lin asked.
Tina shook her head with a smile. “I’m not. I only have the ability to create worlds, but my cultivation base is only at the Return to Void Pinnacle Stage.”
“Oh…” An Lin nodded with a hint of disappointment.
Little Na was so adorable, he couldn’t bear to hurt her…
An Lin then looked at another mission.
This was a spell technique mission, and it was the most powerful one in the history of the system!
It was a high-rank War God spell technique!
The Six Strikes of the War God and the Origin Energy of the Netherworld were all only intermediate-rank War God spell techniques, so a high-rank War God spell technique must have been an extremely bad*ss one.
[High-rank War God mystical technique: Dark Immortal Transformation.
[Condition for obtaining the mystical technique: Obtain the essential remains of the Heavenly True Immortal and consume it.]
An Lin was completely dumbstruck when he first saw this mission condition.
What the hell was this Heavenly True Immortal?
Did something like that really exist on the Tai Chu Continent?
He didn’t think too much of it at that time, but he wanted to learn about it now.
An Lin thought about it and determined that the Celestial Thearch was probably the right person to ask about this. He already stood at the pinnacle of the Heavenly Court, so he should know all of the powerful immortals in this world.
With this in mind, An Lin contacted the Celestial Thearch via voice transmission talisman.
“Hey, Heavenly Court War God, what good news do you have for me this time?”
The Celestial Thearch greeted him with a warm, enthusiastic smile.
An Lin’s battle in the Dark Marshlands had shaken the entire continent.
His Four Nine Immortal Sect was well and truly renowned across the entire continent, but at the same time, he was the Heavenly Court War God, so the Heavenly Court’s authority and position on the continent was further cemented as a result.
The Celestial Thearch knew that An Lin had extraordinary potential, but he didn’t think that he would tap into this potential so quickly.
It had only been a few years, and he was already the pride of the Heavenly Court.
“Celestial Thearch, I have a question I want to ask you. Do you know what the Heavenly True Immortal is?” An Lin asked.
“The what True Immortal?” The Celestial Thearch faltered slightly upon hearing this.
“The Heavenly True Immortal,” An Lin repeated.
“Is this a fictional character or a trick question?” The Celestial Thearch chuckled.
An Lin: “… I’m serious.”
The Celestial Thearch also took this question more seriously upon hearing this.
He replied after a short while, “I do have some recollection of this… About a million years ago, I may have seen that name on an ancient plaque on the Ancient Tai Chu Realm.”
An Lin drew a sharp intake of breath. “That long ago?”
The Celestial Thearch replied, “It really was a long long time ago. I had almost forgotten about this name… The Heavenly True Immortal was a very sought after title.”
“How so?” An Lin asked with excitement welling up in his heart.
The Celestial Thearch replied, “Everyone knows that Dao Integration Stage super mighty figures have fused their dao with heaven and earth and can, therefore, attain an indefinite lifespan… However, even Dao Integration Stage super mighty figures can still die…”
“Is the Heavenly True Immortal different?” An Lin’s heart jolted with shock.
“Of course they’re different. The Heavenly True Immortal is an existence that transcends beyond the worlds. Even if heaven and earth were destroyed and the sun and moon were snuffed out, they would still be able to exist for all of eternity,” the Celestial Thearch elaborated.
An Lin was given a fright upon hearing this. “How could there be such a bad*ss person in this world?”
The Celestial Thearch heaved a faint sigh. “I’m not sure. There were only a few vague pieces of information left on the ancient plaque, and this was all of the information that I could decipher. In any case, the Heavenly True Immortal is at least a being comparable to Nuwa or perhaps on an even higher level…”
An Lin: “…”
In that case, this mission was no longer just difficult. It was unimaginably insane!
How could he be expected to complete such a freakish mission?!
“That’s all the information I have regarding the Heavenly True Immortal.” The Celestial Thearch’s words were intermingled with a sense of yearning. “A legendary figure like this is something all cultivators yearn for.”
“That’s true…” An Lin heaved a faint sigh.
He really did yearn for the Heavenly True Immortal. In fact, he had to eat their bones…
An Lin cut off the voice transmission with a dejected expression on his face. After learning about these details, he was in even more despair. This was basically an impossible mission!
Thank God this mission had no punishment for mission failure.
Otherwise, An Lin would probably have to be impotent for countless years!
Wait, why was he thinking about impotence?
An Lin shuddered and immediately banished this thought from his mind!
He couldn’t allow concepts like this to take root in his subconsciousness!
